68. Suppression (I)
On the third day after Li Bufan's assassination, the General Headquarters of the Nanjing Provisional Government suddenly issued an official letter requesting that Li Songshan and Li Huangshan, senior officers commanding the war against Japan, and Li Hai'an, a navy, return to Beijing to report on their work.
Immediately after that, news broke that Li Bufan had been assassinated and died, and the chiefs of staff, Li Huashan and Li Hengshan, controlled the military and political affairs in Nanjing, prohibiting anyone from visiting, in order to block the news and seize military and political power, and the whole country was in an uproar for a while.
Therefore, the troops under the command of Li Bufan's various descendants and officers sent telegrams one after another to express that they would be stationed on the spot and refuse to accept the order to transfer. It was as if the whole of China had become a multitude of warlords overnight, and the national defense force of the University seemed to disintegrate in an instant.
This change made the European and American powers stunned, and they never dreamed that the once powerful Chinese army would become a plate of scattered sand in an instant. This change makes them all feel ridiculous, in their opinion, isn't it over if the president dies and changes to one? How could it be like this? But it also made them feel inexplicably surprised.
Smith, Hollande, and Conger all looked at each other, surprised and disbelieving.
Smith frowned, "Could this be a conspiracy?" ”
Hollande hesitated: "It shouldn't be possible, right?" Such collective disobedience has a very bad impact in the military. ”
Conger said thoughtfully: "Could it be because of Li Bufan's death?" These Li Bufan's descendants are loyal to Li Bufan personally, but they are not satisfied with everyone else. Just like Yuan Shikai at the beginning, Beiyang surrendered to him, even if Yuan Shikai claimed that the emperor was rebelled, no Beiyang army dared to meet him, but after Yuan Shikai's death, Beiyang quickly split, forming a situation of warlord separation. ”
Smith nodded, "If that's the case, that's great." The strength of a unified China is really terrible. Such a country is unconquerable if they are bent on resisting, especially since they have developed a defense industry. ”
Hollande smiled and said, "Anyway, it's an unexpected surprise, isn't it?" ”
Conger shook his head and said, "It's still uncertain, we don't know if Li Bufan is really dead." Unless there is turmoil among the warlords who are not their descendants," in his view, China cannot be regarded as entering a state of warlord secession at present, but because Li Bufan's life and death are unknown, his descendants do not listen to the transfer of others. If the forces of non-descendant warlords are in turmoil, then it really indicates that China has once again entered the era of warlord warfare.
At this moment, a diplomatic staff member rushed in: "Something is wrong"
In the car at the base of the Provisional Presidential Palace in Nanjing.
Li Bufan, Wu Di, Li Huashan, and Li Hengshan all looked at the telegram sent.
The Majia Army in the Northwest rebelled, looted the warehouses and supplies in the Northwest, and laid siege to the road guards. The road guard team is the army that protects the construction of the railway, and the great northwest has been in turmoil since ancient times, and there are many horse bandits, and there is no road guard team but afraid that the railway construction cannot be carried out. If you think that the horse bandits only rob money, it is a big mistake, and the core of the real looting in the northwest is still food.
Li Bufan said solemnly: "It's really good." The accounts of decades of chaos have not been settled with them, and they still dare to rebel? ”
The outbreak broke out in 1862, the first year of Tongzhi, and lasted for 16 years (12 years in the Shaanxi-Gansu region, and a few years before the rest of Shaanxi Hui entered Xinjiang). The main leader of the Shaanxi district was Hemingtang of Shaanxi (Ren Wu was only a small leader), the main leader of the Gansu district was Mu San, and the core of the whole movement was Jinjibao in Ningxia Prefecture, Gansu Province, where Ma Hualong was located (note that Gansu in the Qing Dynasty included Ningxia Prefecture and Xining Prefecture), and the leader of the remnants of Shaanxi during the period when they entered Xinjiang was Bai Yanhu. Shengbao, the leader of the Qing army in the early stage, was given death by Cixi. The army of Duolong'a dug up the water of the Tianhe River and fought hard to wash away the fire, drove the Shaanxi Hui into Gansu, and pacified the first climax of the rebellion. Zuo Zongtang pacified the second climax, and was finally pacified by Zuo Zongtang. According to the statistics on page 635 of Cao Shuji's "History of the Chinese Population: Volume V of the Qing Dynasty" published by Fudan University, an authoritative work in the field of Chinese population history, the population of Gansu (not to be confused with the current Gansu) in the eleventh year of Xianfeng before the war (1861) was 19.46 million, and only 4.96 million remained in the six years of Guangxu after the war (1880), and the population loss ratio was 75%.
You don't need to look at anything else, just look at this one account, it's enough to be shocking. In fact, the continuous rebellion lasted for several decades, dozens or hundreds of times, tens of millions of people were killed and wounded, the entire northwest was simply a river of blood, and the Han people were almost slaughtered. It was simply one of the greatest tragedies of all time. Li Huashan said: "President, the Northwest Majia Army is not a problem, there are only tens of thousands of people, and the weapons are backward, we only need one integrated division to defeat them head-on." But the biggest problem is that the cavalry in the northwest, the cavalry can crisscross the northwest like the wind, only the official roads in the northwest are barely converted into roads, and other roads are impassable, and the mobility of the infantry is far from being comparable with the cavalry. It's easy to defeat them, but it's troublesome to try to destroy them. ”
Wu Di sneered: "That's not necessarily. Even if they can run again, can they still run to the sky? With such a unit reorganized, we are not without cavalry, and there is no problem in transferring cavalry units from various localities to form 10 or 8 cavalry regiments. These cavalry regiments may not be as good as the horse-back cavalry in frontal combat, but there is no problem in beating the water dogs. ”
Li Huashan said: "The problem is that the Northwest Ma Jiajun is deeply rooted in the Northwest, and you can get the best help wherever you go. In history, it seems that Feng Yuxiang absorbed the northwest, which also triggered a collective rebellion by him and the Hui people led by Ma Jiajun in the northwest, and finally had to be stopped. As a result, Ma Jiajun obeyed Feng Yuxiang's orders, but most of Gan Qingning was still controlled by Ma Jiajun. ”
Li Bufan said solemnly: "We don't have so much time to grind tofu for them, assist the rebels, and kill no mercy!" ”
"No way!" Wu Di immediately spoke out loud, and said with a serious expression, "Boss, since the time of the Daimyo Hongwu, the Ming Empire has announced a comprehensive policy of intermarriage with all ethnic minorities, which stipulates that those who do not intermarry with ethnic minorities can only be slaves and maids. That is to say, since then, there are basically no pure ethnic minorities in our country, and the blood of the Chinese nation has long been integrated. Boss, I can turn a blind eye to how to deal with foreign wars, and even agree with the cleanup of some scum, but I will never agree to such a large-scale massacre of compatriots, and I must stop it. ”
Li Bufan squinted at Wu Enemy and said: "Wu Enemy, I think you are very aware of the current situation of our country, and we can't maintain this situation for too long, so we must quickly cut through the chaos and quickly sweep away the turmoil." Otherwise, the turmoil will spread, and the flames of war will burn for thousands of miles, which will lead to the destruction of human lives. ”
Wu Di shook his head and said, "Those are completely two concepts. The guilty should be killed, and the death of the innocent will lead to the wrath of heaven and resentment, and everyone in the world will be in danger. In the long run, the recklessness of human life will only cause the whole world to turn against it, which is extremely detrimental to the long-term development of the country. ”
Li Bufan sneered: "There is no time now. The world is all against it? Can their heads be harder than bullets? ”
Wu Di did not give in at all, looked directly at Li Bufan and said loudly: "The people are not afraid of death, why are they afraid of death!" ”
Li Bufan glared at Wu Di angrily, he didn't expect Wu Di to suddenly fight against him on this issue, he had always thought that Wu Di was extremely black-bellied, and that suggestion to deal with the Japanese and the stick was simply to kill them all. However, he can't lose Wu's enemies, although Li Huashan and other senior cloning experts can give him great help in military technology, but there is one thing they can't give, that is, familiarity with historical developments. If we don't know about the Great East Earthquake and stimulate Japan's military expansion at that time, and use the earthquake to destroy a large number of Japan's strategic materials and soldiers in an instant, it will definitely not be so easy to defeat Japan.
It is not nonsense to describe the role of a traverser as one person worth a million soldiers. Li Bufan suddenly laughed "hehe", then turned into a laugh, and then patted Wu Di's shoulder and said, "Very good." Today, you made me look up at you. ”
Wu Di was actually shocked by Li Bufan's laughter, and his heart was empty. He is not such a courageous person, otherwise he would not be plotted for family property in future generations, but weak people are not unprincipled, and Wu Di absolutely looks down on the kind of butcher who kills innocents indiscriminately against his own compatriots.
Li Bufan's reaction made Wu Di breathe a sigh of relief, cold sweat soaked his underwear, and he forced a smile on his face and said: "Boss, the eldest husband has something to do and something not to do." Boss, we are for the country and the people, aiming to build the great cause of our China for thousands of years, why bother to leave a lasting reputation. ”
Li Bufan nodded and said, "Well said, I was impulsive just now." I always thought that you, a traverser, were a guy with a black belly and no bottom line, but I didn't expect you to have such persistence. Very good, really good, I was indeed a little anxious just now, the rebellion has caused tens of millions of casualties, and the loss of people is simply more than the population of the entire United Kingdom, how can it not be painful? As he spoke, he slammed his fist into the messy notebook on the table.
Wu Di Zhengse said: "This is the limitation of history, the Manchu Qing Dynasty at that time to ignore the people's policy. In the era of the later republic, the 56 ethnic groups in our country have long been like one family, and we have only one common name, which is the Chinese nation. ”
Li Bufan nodded heavily, and said to Li Huashan: "Three days later, let's do it and catch all these miscellaneous pieces!" ”
"Yes!"
In three days, the land of Shenzhou was full of gunsmoke, under the rebellion led by the Majia Army in the northwest, and then saw that although the Nanjing Center ordered the troops to encircle and suppress, but the various departments did not move, many troops ruled by old-fashioned officers began to dominate the territory, and even the great powers began to move to connect with these forces, and China seemed to have once again entered an era of warlord melee.
ps: I'm sorry, in fact, it's typeset every day, but I don't know how to become like that when I send it, I don't know how to do it. Thank you for your support.
